Is it worth it to spend 80$ for a cable? In this video I am comparing the equivalent of regular cables found in any music store to some high end Mogami gold plated cables.

This is not a cable shootout or comparison of brands video. It is more to make you reflect on if you would eventually want to upgrade your cables or not and why.

I am focusing on 2 things in my sound clips:
- Noise / hum / buzz
- Frequency definition

Conclusion: I think the Mogami Gold is a fair winner with a smoother sound, lower noise, more definition on the low end and less harsh highs. For me, definitely worth the investment, especially if you already have some high end pedals !

But, is it worth it for you? Tell me your opinion in the comments !
